Tonight is Don Bluth University’s Graduation. I am proud of this year’s graduates, all their hard work is inspiring. One of our students even built his own portable animation desk. We have a lot of talent in this class. - Don

Don Bluth Masterclass Week!!! I don’t usually get to do the assignments during the Masterclasses because I’m helping Don and shooting student’s tests. BUUUTTTT this time I get to ANIMATE!!! Day one is Fievel Mousekewitz! Can’t wait to see what tomorrow’s test is!

Don Bluth University Masterclass this week. Congratulations to all our graduates this year. We’d love to have you for the next full year class in September. Come join us! - Don

How do artists stay inspired when Ai is threatening them? Here are my thoughts on Ai. Thank you Nostalgiac Media for the video. - Don

You will own nothing and be happy.

We rely on the internet and streaming waaaay too much. Go back to basics. Buy DVDs, Blu-ray’s, CDs, and Records. Then you get NO ADS and NO disappearing favorites. You don’t OWN what you CANT HOLD! #PhysicalMediaOnly

@Traditional2D Every fucking show and movie is available online. Just type Watch Samurai Jack episode 5 or whatever 😒 And nearly every game is available to emulate. Don't act stupid

If you can’t hold it, YOU DON’T OWN IT. In the future we wont own anything, it will all be digital assets. So if your done with a game, album or movie, too bad. You can’t resell it or trade it. And if they happen to come up with a way to trade your online assets, they will find ways to FEE the crap out of you.

Finally, two good old friends meet again in Anaheim. Paul Williams is the man who sang the theme song to the movie The Secret of NIMH. It was great to catch up, he still has a beautiful voice. - Don

Last day at FanExpo Anaheim! Yesterday I met Alan Oppenheimer in the green room! (The awesome voice of Skeletor) and finally got to meet @Kosperry! We have talked for years, it’s good to put a face to all that amazing art. Kosperry did this art piece of @DonBluth and myself! I absolutely LOVE IT!! Thanks Kosperry!

Quick gesture drawing. ✍️ I miss going to open life drawing classes. I used to go 2-3 times a week. It’s just not the same using photographs or video. When you are in-person you can really immerse yourself in the art. If you have never gone to a life drawing open class, I highly recommend it.

I will be in Anaheim this weekend for FanExpo Special Edition. If you are in the area, come by and say hello. - Don

Anyone remember these? @FinalFantasy

A random idea I had of an angry bunny bouncer. He smoked like a chimney and hated everyone he talked to. Wouldn’t let you in the club unless you bribed him. A real son of a.. 😆
